I can't string them together cuz of the nature of the negitive. the oil light, high beam and neutral light have seperate ground wires, same positive lead. the signal lights have a common ground seperate positive leads.OK, so make two strings.
One 2v, and one 3v in each string.
Rlimit = (13.8v - (2v+3v)) / 20mA
Rlimit = 8.8/0.02 = 440 Ohms.
Since it's so close, we'll try 430 Ohms.
LEDcurrent = 8.8/430 = 20.46mA. That should be pretty comfy.
What if the generator was charging hard at 14.5v?
14.5v -5v= 9.5v; 9.5/430 = 22.1mA - still not horriffic.
Check the wattage: 9.5 x 22.1mA = 0.21; x2=.42, need a 1/2W resistor.
Check the current with a discharged battery:
11.7 - 5 = 6.7v; 6.7/430 = 15.6mA. You'll notice that it's dimmer, but it'll still be fairly bright.
They have to be wired individually
